Lyrics

[Intro] Mmm, yeah Alright Ooh [Verse 1] Got a call from an old friend, we used to be real close Said he couldn't go on the American way Closed his shop, sold the house, bought a ticket to the west coast Now he gives them a stand-up routine in L.A.​ [Chorus] I don't need you to worry for me 'cause I'm alright I don't want you to tell me it's time to come home I don't care what you say anymore, this is my life Go ahead with your own life, leave me alone [Post-Chorus] I never said you had to offer me a second chance (I never said you had to...) I never said I was a victim of circumstance (I never said...) I still belong (Still belong) Don't get me wrong (Get me wrong) And you can speak your mind But not on my time [Verse 2] They will tell you you can't sleep alone in a strange place Then they'll tell you you can't sleep with somebody else Ah, but sooner or later, you sleep in your own space Either way, it's okay, you wake up with yourself [Chorus] I don't need you to worry for me 'cause I'm alright I don't want you to tell me it's time to come home I don't care what you say anymore, this is my life Go ahead with your own life, leave me alone [Post-Chorus] I never said you had to offer me a second chance (I never said you had to...) I never said I was a victim of circumstance (Of circumstance...) I still belong (Still belong) Don't get me wrong (Get me wrong) And you can speak your mind But not on my time [Chorus] I don't care what you say anymore, this is my life Go ahead with your own life, leave me alone [Outro] Keep it to yourself, it's my life Keep it to yourself, it's my life Keep it to yourself, it's my life Keep it to yourself, it's my life
